Patriots' Wolf Stands by LT Will Campbell

New England Patriots executive Eliot Wolf defended rookie left tackle Will Campbell, citing a torn knee ligament as the primary reason for his playoff struggles.

Wolf acknowledged Campbell lost strength after returning from the torn ACL but praised his technique and quickness. He believes the fourth overall pick has the skills to overcome arm length concerns and will improve with age.

Despite the criticism, Wolf confirmed the coaching staff remains committed to keeping Campbell at left tackle and believes the young line can improve.
